Duane Capizzi

TV Writer and Producer

Duane Capizzi is a long-time animation geek, comic book nerd, film buff, rock snob, and Emmy award-winning writer/producer of TV animation for children. He specializes in smart, funny, character-driven action-adventure series, having developed, written and/or produced shows for Disney (Darkwing Duck, Talespin, Aladdin); Sony (Jackie Chan Adventures, Men In Black: The Animated Series, The Big Guy & Rusty the Boy Robot); Warner Bros (The Batman, Superman Doomsday); and Hasbro (Transformers Prime), among others. Yet, his enthusiasm knows no bounds for his latest and definitely greatest: the animated reboot of Carmen Sandiego for Netflix. He holds a BA in English Literature from UCLA, and lives in Los Angeles with his both of his muses: his wife Linnea and their cat Kenny.

Writing for television is certainly one of the more collaborative forms of writing. But collaboration is only the first step of the process, since the goal of The Writers Room is for writers to come away with an episodic assignment to complete.
